Since Pearl Harbor $72,603,000,0.00 have been appropriated for weapons and equipment that will beat the Axis. That’s the victory news from Washington these days. Production schedules are so huge that you begin to ask if all that work can be done, and done in time, even in the won der word of •America’s mass production factories. But when the.first war schedule was an nounced after Pearl Harbor it seemed so impossibly huge that the Axis called it pro paganda and said that for all our manu facturing skill and great resources we couldn’t do it. You remember that sche dule—125,000 airplanes, 75,000 tanks, 10,- 000,000 tons of shipping by the end of 1943. Today our" factories are turning out these planes and tanks . and ships so fast that in many instances they are actually ahead of schedule. Proof of that is given in the stories written by the newspaper men who made a tour through several of ^he country’s closely-guarded war plants. They reported some astonishing facts. Liberty ships are now being built in 100 days and less, instead of the original esti mate of 200. A factory manufacturing machine guns has doubled its production since February. The United States is now far ahead of the Axis in the number of ma chine tools it is making for use in war plants. In almost every instance weapons are being produced faster today than most people though possible only a short time ago. Big as the original schedules were, they are actually being exceeded. And the &ew' ones will be exceeded, too, for our in dustries have hit their victory stride. Do ing the impossible is for them almost a routine job today. lage ahoBt 30 mflM from the northern ’ pkrt *^i»r-. Ir^ell county.

Claire L. ‘Chennault, chief, of the Flying Tigers, says thht with 2,000 planes the Japanese air force can be utter- dy destroyed. He may be wTong, but his record as both fighter and strategist entit les him tp a lot of credence. K again we send,too little too late, Dr. T. F. Tsiang, Chinese spokesman, warns that “the immediate future of China is very grave.’’. The Japanese three-pronged at tack, designed to knock China out of the war, could easily succeed. Thereupon victorious Japanese forces, which already have taken everything be tween Hawaii and Australia away from Americans, British and, Dutch, could turn their undivided attention on Australia, In dia, Serbia, Alaska, Hawaii. But if^we send the planes with which air power can be destroyed, and 5,000,000 happy Chinese people push 800,- 000 little brown heathens off the mainland of Asia, we shall have Nippon on the run.

Say instead that as yet no way has been found to do it.” That’s the advice of a man who know.s what he’s talking about—a famous inven tor and engineer who has given us things like the self-starter and octane gasoline, to mention two of many. According to him, mechanical advances are being made even faster than usual today because of the pressure of war needs. Already we have new devices on our planes and tanks that enable them in many instances to outper form those made by our enemies. We haven’t stopped, improving them and our other weapons, either. New war in- jveptions are being produced all the time. More than 45,000 suggestions were sent in to the Patent Office last year by America’s inventors, and 3,000 of them have been adopted to date. Some of these inventions have to do with the new machines, like the outrigged tank that is really a rolling fort- and the ground strafer'airplane with IF WE WIN It is a fact that our country is putting forth a great effort now to win the war.

We are spending, and expect to spend, billions and billions of dollars. us^ Tolaking ordere And it is going to cost us the lives of many of our dear soldiers, in all probability, be fore the titanic conflict comes to a close. This is the sad fact that starres us in the face. However, in our effort to win the war we may do the very thing that could de feat us, namely, trust our own efforts and manpower, and spend our billions of dol lars, and fail on God.

When a woman fell asleep in a city church and tumbled out of the balcony her dress caught on a railing and she was suspended in a most undignified, if not shocking, position. The minister, trying to get over the situation as best he could, said: “Anyone who looks eround will be struck stone blind”.

The last war hastened the development, of several new products—^the radio, stain less steel, and dozens of new alloys and . metals. There’s no telling yet what things will come out of today’s shortages and needs. Necessity is the .mother of inven tion, all right, and she gets in some good licks in a country like this where inventors are encouraged by industry and by our tra ditional patent system that has been pro tecting their rights for more than 150 years. > LETS WHIP japan NOW (Bei^ille Review) Fvt. fiiYe yean, eome July 7, China has God, neglect our prayer meeting, the Gospel, or fail to heed its warning, andv turn our means and lives, over to war, then the Great God of heaven may .suffer the enemy tc overpower us. It is indeed possi ble. In Old Testament times the Lord per mitted kings and nations more wicked than Israel to make war upon them and .bring them to defeat. Wh.y? Because of their disobedience; because of their transgres sions. 'When they went into idolatry, and forsook God and His statutes, then they had to suffer for it. We believe America is the most wonderful nation on earth today, but we are losing tremendously in morality and spirituality. We have become a plea- sure-loving, pleasure-seeking country. We have seriously neglected our churches, our Sunday schools, our prayer services, and have failed to win souls as we should, and to hold mighty revivals, and send the gos pel throughout the earth. These are solemn i truths. What the outcome is going to be we cannot say, but we realize it is high time to get back to God and the Christian religion. , We are conscious of the fact that it Ls going to require a mighty effort to suppbrf the cause of God from a fir ancial stand- pont when we are expected "to give so much to finance the war. Just here is a grave danger also. We are going to excuse our selves, if not very careful, in failing to fin ance the church and the cause of God be cause we are giving so tTBRiendously to cany on the war.
